Bittersweetheart Lyrics - Let Your Dim Light Shine - Soul Asylum

Why you always want to get the best of me? 

I'm like a seeing eye dog and I can't even see 

They're naked and they're following my master who is blind 

And my mind's gone to pieces, I could use some piece of mind 

So, I picked up the pieces and I made a new start 

Stole an old stiletto, started stabbing in the dark 

I can't live without it, I would surely fall apart 

But it's hard to make arrangements 'round a bitter sweetheart 

Bittersweet 

Bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

Better get yourself a little street smart 

Bitter sweetheart, sad but true 

It's a bitter sweetheart that's a hard heart to cure 

It's just my bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

It's like a suicide mission when you can't see no end 

Tired of compliment fishing and impressing your friends 

I never kissed no one just to kiss and tell 

It's a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of hell 

In the eye of the beholder is a beautiful start 

You always seem to end up with a bitter sweetheart 

There's a darkness looming but the sun is shining bright 

I can live to see the morning if I stay up all night 

Bittersweet 

Bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

Without a shortcut, without a head start 

Bitter sweetheart, sad but true 

It's a bitter sweetheart that's a hard heart to cure 

My bitter sweetheart 

It's the hardest part 

Bitter sweetheart 

Are you in there, are you beating? 

Beating me up until I'm bleeding 

How much blood can you spare? 

Bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

Think just a drink might get you to the good part 

Lyin' in bed just a wonderin' what to do 

It's a bitter sweetheart that's a hard heart to cure 

In time inside you find, you always wind up with a bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

Bitter sweetheart 

In time inside you find, you always wind up with a bitter sweetheart
